Visitors of the Nash County Senior Center are now able to enjoy the outdoors a little more, thanks to a local teen’s Eagle Scout project.

The fall is my family’s favorite time of year for many reasons. The weather starts to turn to where it is safe to go outside, the kids’ fall sports seasons are nearing a tiny window of offseason, the holidays are creeping closer, and the state fair comes to town.

Lack of second term funding or skill failures in management.
